As the fastest-growing Software as a Service (SaaS) company in history, Deel is transforming how global talent connects with world-class companies - breaking down borders that have traditionally limited both hiring and career opportunities. /p pWe're not just building software; we're creating the infrastructure for the future of work, enabling a more diverse and inclusive global economy. /p pIn 2024 alone, we paid $11.2 billion to workers in nearly 100 currencies and provided healthcare and benefits to workers in 109 countries - ensuring people get paid and protected, no matter where they are. /p pOur momentum is reflected in our achievements and customer satisfaction: CNBC Disruptor 50, Forbes Cloud 100, Deloitte Fast 500, and repeated recognition on Y Combinator's top companies list - all while maintaining a 4.83 average rating from 15,000 reviews across G2, Trustpilot, Captera, Apple and Google. /p pYour experience at Deel will be a career accelerator. /p pAt the forefront of the global work revolution, you'll tackle complex challenges that impact millions of people's working lives. /p pWith our momentum - backed by a $17.3 billion valuation and $1 B in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in just over five years - you'll drive meaningful impact while building expertise that makes you a sought-after leader in the transformation of global work. /p pAbout the role We're looking for an Infrastructure Tech Lead to join our Infra Core team at Deel. /p pThis is a staff-level, technical leadership role (with no direct people management). /p pYou will be the most senior technical voice on a team of four to five engineers, setting the technical direction while doing real, hands-on work in equal measure. /p pIn this role, technical depth is not optional. /p pYou will stay close to the architecture, code, and infrastructure while simultaneously shaping the roadmap and raising the team's bar. /p pYour primary focus is the application layer: how services are built, observed, and scaled across the organization.
/p pYou will be building the control plane, tooling, and infrastructure primitives that hundreds of Deel engineers depend on every day. /p pHow we build at Deel As a hyper-growth company, new initiatives and shifting priorities are the norm here. /p pThis is not an environment for "maintenance-mode" engineering. /p pWe are builders. /p pOur philosophy is simple: identify the biggest bottleneck, build a robust solution, ship it, and immediately move on to tackle the next massive problem. /p pIf you thrive in a high‑velocity environment where your work has an immediate, wide‑scale impact, you'll feel right at home. /p h3The challenges ahead /h3 ul liEngineering-Led Product Ownership: We do not have a Product Manager. /li liArchitectural Impact: You will design patterns and infrastructure for a rapidly growing Kubernetes ecosystem, shaping how hundreds of microservices are built, deployed, and efficiently scaled globally. /li liExpert Troubleshooting Noise Reduction: You are the ultimate escalation point during critical production incidents. /li liService Provisioning Developer Experience: Transform how a new service goes from approved to running. /li liEdge Routing Traffic Management: Drive massive architectural shifts at the routing layer. /li liSecrets Management Infrastructure Security: Lead enterprise‑scale secrets management and security posture improvements. /li liApplication Observability at Scale: Spearhead the evolution of our observability stack. /li liReal-time Agentic Infrastructure: Architect and deploy new platform capabilities, from enterprise‑scale real‑time WebSocket infrastructure to ensuring our platform natively and efficiently supports the massive influx of event‑driven and AI‑agentic workloads. /li liCross‑Functional Collaboration: Work closely with DevOps, DBA, InfoSec, and product engineering teams to align on organizational goals. /li /ul h3Nice to have /h3 ul liExperience with internal developer platforms (IDP), developer experience tooling, or self‑serve platform engineering. /li /ul p(While this role is primarily infrastructure-focused, platform instincts are a strong premio.) /p h3What makes you stand out /h3 ul liTechnical depth alone isn't enough for this role. /li liThe person who will thrive here can hold a strong technical vision, align a team behind it, and execute; even through ambiguity or disagreement. /li liYou have a reputation for shipping things that are hard to ship. /li liYou know how to keep a project moving without losing the room, and you strongly prioritize relentless execution over endless debate. /li /ul pThe team Infra Core is a remote,
highly autonomous team of five engineers solving the foundational infrastructure problems that affect every team at Deel. /p pWe are considered an enabler within the company heavily relied upon during critical moments, and operating entirely without a PM so we can shape our own destiny. /p pFrom how a new service gets provisioned on day one to how it runs reliably at scale, we handle it. /p pWe work closely with our sister workstream (Infra Engineering) and with DevOps, sitting squarely at the critical intersection of developer experience and production reliability. /p h3Total Rewards /h3 pOur workforce deserves fair and competitive pay that meets them where they are. /p pWith scalable benefits, rewards, and perks, our total rewards programs reflect our commitment to inclusivity and access for all. /p pOur salary range reflects gross base salary. /p pFor commercial roles with commission eligibility, this figure represents On‑Target Earnings (OTE), inclusive of base salary and target commission. /p pSalary ranges are quoted in USD as a consistent global reference. /p pYour offer will be localized to your country's currency using a market‑aligned conversion. /p pFinal pay is based on objective, job‑related criteria including experience, skills, and location. /p pWe don't ask about salary history. /p pOffers are based on the role and what you bring to it. /p pSome things you'll enjoy /p ul liStock grant opportunities dependent on your role, employment status and location /li liAdditional perks and benefits based on your employment status and country /li liThe flexibility of remote work, including optional WeWork access /li /ul pAt Deel, we're an equal‑opportunity employer that values diversity and positively encourage applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of race, religion, sex, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, pregnancy or maternity or other applicable legally protected characteristics. /p pWe will provide application and/or interview accommodations on request throughout the recruitment, selection and assessment process for applicants with disabilities or other needs. /p pUnless otherwise agreed, we will communicate with job applicants using Deel‑specific emails, which include @ and other acquired company emails like @ and @ . /p pIn limited cases, we may also consider informal background information relevant to the role, in line with our privacy and fairness obligations. /p pThis application process may utilise Automated Employment Decision Tools (AEDT) and AI systems to assist in evaluating candidates based on experience level, technical skills and qualifications. /p pThis processing is conducted in compliance with applicable Data Protection, AI Governance and Labour Laws. /p pWe ensure human oversight is maintained in all final hiring decisions. /p pYour personal data is not used to train AI models. xysqume /p pFor more information on how we process your personal data, please see our Recruitment Privacy Policy. /p pFor NYC Residents: In accordance with NYC Local Law 144, an independent bias audit has been conducted on AEDT /p /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
